I don't mean for the grouting I mean for the cores floor. They put scaffolding up after the core rises and the boom would provide the concrete in there. It will be harder to do now since it's in an awkward spot and that its cold and it will need to be heated. I'm not confident they will meet that timeline. Here's hoping though.

It shouldn't affect anything. There are 2 completed levels inside the core form. They will raise the form like usual to expose the 12th floor. With the pump removed the crane can install the required steel and hollowcore to allow the crane to be secured to the building. As soon as the crane is raised, they can re-install the pump and begin to pour the 2 new core levels inside the form as usual.

As Biff mentioned, the pump has been Temporarily relocated to allow for better clearance.

My guess is pretty bare as I can see welding arc flashes against the hoarding in the morning.

And what is up there is not even the pump as the pump is at ground level off between Main and Fort. What is up at the top level is just the distribution point.

Was mentioned a few pages back that they uncovered a lot of surprises there and are quite behind.

Is the main camera down? I don't see the camera view from the Main Street side looking west.

SO good to see the core rising again! Great pictures of the progress on the parkade, too. Thanks!

I knew the place looked funny by being taller when I drove by to the Jets game.

Glad to see the core risen, once again. Now comes the inevitable jacking up the crane, once several other key pieces are in place.

Hey what's a five month delay in pouring the core right, Rome wasn't built in a day!

So are they perhaps moving the entrance to Main from Fort? What was it previously - Enter/Exit on Fort and Exit on Main?

There has always been an exit on Main. An entrance and exit are also located on Fort.

The picture is of the the exit on Main. The wall has all been replaced with stone.

Marwest has captioned that photo as "Also, a nice, new eventual entrance to the parkade"
